A flock of bats, crisp dark silhouettes, streams in a loose diagonal across a wide night sky toward a large full moon sitting low in the sky. Soft moonlight warms the layered bands of dusk clouds nearest it into dusty peach and cream, while the darker sky is sprinkled with small glowing stars.

A small silhouette of foliage anchors one lower corner. Soft-focus, blended brushwork in the sky contrasts with the sharply drawn bats, and visible canvas grain gives the oil painting a nostalgic, vintage feel.
